Breathing and Water Two basic ways to increase your vitality for Body, Mind and Spirit by Mary Francis Hoffman PHD, REACE, RSME

First,
the BREATH is our connection to life. We can go without
food for 30 days, without water for three days, but in 3
minutes without the breath, we die. There are many benefits
to breathing. Deep Breathing can give us clarity and calmness,
reduce stress and anxiety. Breathing can also eliminate
toxins trapped in the lungs' cilia (little hairs that move
mucus and waste from pollution around us). Breathing can
increase your bloods circulation and an important key in
modulating and regularizing the body's rhythms related to
sleep, digestion, and other core functions. The expansion
and contraction of muscles with full deep breathing assists
the lymph in its cleansing process.
Second, WATER needs to be your best friend. Water gives
vital fluid to the systems and organs that process nutrients,
and then it helps take away all the unwanted refuse, such
as bacteria and toxins.
Your cleansing process relies heavily on the lymphatic system,
which processes various collection sites for waste. Lymph
is a clear, colorless fluid, which flows through your body
much like the blood circulation system, but at a slower
rate and in a one-way direction through capillaries and
lymph nodes.

When
the lymph system is sluggish, your body retains all those
waste products and extra fluid, leaving you tired, stressed
and susceptible to disease.
Candice Pert in her book, "Molecules in Emotion",
speaks about when we hold our breath we suppress the necessary
flow of emotions and feelings. Your emotions then can get
locked into your cellular tissues. A natural way to release
this cellular debris is to simply spend time daily, BREATHING!!!!!!!
Keeping the Lymph flowing is a key for good health. Water
intake assists the Lymph in the cleansing process and so
does breathing.
So Drink up and take in a deep BREATH, Here's to your
HEALTH!!!!!!!!!!
